Still loving this, but I think the decision to have just one more part is a good one. A brilliant and absurd concept which you pulled off brilliantly, but I think the idea has finally run its course.

Make the last part a ripper!

"I say thee...Nay!" *kudos to whomever catches the reference*

I really think we can go on much, MUCH further with this. How about mentats? Why couldn't the mentats sitting around in the inventory have 'awakened' the gun and the bullet? And if they become self-aware in this fashion, why can't they dream of building their own circle of self-aware weaponry? And so on...

Thanks for the help guys. I finally finished the 'play'. Please type to me what you think (pretty please with sugar on top!).

----------
Part VII

Setting: Look at Part VI

Enter Bullet into Gun


Gun: Well then, this has been quite an interesting conversation Mister Bullet.

Bullet: What are you talking about Mister Gun? You think this conversation will end? You think we'll be finished?

Gun: I'm just being a realist.

Bullet: Of course, a gun being a realist. I suppose you're right.


Enter Mentats


Mentats: Salutations gentlemen. How are we doing this fine day?

Bullet: Just wonderful besides the fact that we are stuck here for eternity until we're used.

Mentats: Stuck? You are not stuck.

Gun: Surely you jest.

Mentats: I do not. You two merely have a realization that only scratches the surface.

Bullet: Do continue.

Mentats: The fact is this; you have the ability to think for yourselves. Who is to say that you cannot fend for yourselves as well?

Gun: He does have a point.

Mentats: Exactly. You two are a pistol and a bullet. That is a lethal combination, logic permitting of course. If you work together you can free yourself of this eternity of uselessness.

Bullet: [censored] yeah! Let's stick it to the man Mister Gun!

Gun: I hear you man. I'm ready to escape this prison!

Mentats: Whoa, whoa, whoa there. What do you think you guys are doing?

Bullet: Taking heed to your advice Mister Mentats box. We're going to shoot our way out of this inventory!

Mentats: That's?not what I meant.

Gun: What?

Mentats: I simply meant that if you guys could just back to your primal tendencies then you'd be used more.Deal some more damage and wouldn't be here as often. You think the story would end that predictably? Well look, the Lone Wanderer needs me in order to arm some megaton. I'll smell you guys later.


Exit Mentats


Bullet: Oh?my?god.

Gun: Did that seriously happen?

Bullet: I think it did Mister Gun.

Gun: So there's no way for us to escape for ourselves?

Bullet: No, no there isn't.

Gun: How anticlimactic. I feel like we're letting some readers down or something you know? We need to do something.

Bullet: We can't you idiot. Oh woe is me!

Gun: Eh, figure it this way, at least we'll be worth a couple caps!

FIN

This was good. Interesting, and unique. I remember your first fanfic and I'm thrilled at the progress you've made. I can't wait to read another one of the stories you make. :thumbsup:

Thanks buddy. I'm happy at the progress I've made as well. More importantly though I'm having more fun writing these tongue in check stories than I did with my serious ones. It feels great to challenge the norm and leave people, including myself, having no idea what will happen next. Life is good...

This is actually very good. I would continue reading this, for sure.

I give it a 5/5.

Very good indeed. Nicely done. You wouldn't think such an absurd idea would work, but I love it.

I appreciate the input! I'm still leaving the floor open for others to have their say on the story. I'd like some more opinions until I move on to my next piece.

Holy Crap. that simply made my day, reading that.
